Is it possible with the EDEM 2022.1 Analyst section to create cross sections of the particle bed?

Dear,

Currently, I'm investigating a mixing application by use of EDEM. It would be helpful to be able to look into the particle bed besides making use of the top/front/side view in the Analyst section. These views only provide limited information...

I am wondering for instance if it is possible to cut the particle bed in slices (in a yet to be determined direction) to be able to qualitatively assess the particle bed?

In case more information is needed to answer my question, let me know. Thanks in advance.

Kind regards.

    Hi Jeroen,

    Depenidng on what you need to quantify you can:

    1. Use a clipping plane:

    2. Compute continuum fields from the discrete partcle data on pre-defined planes:
